I picked up the new 'Our Family' collection and beautiful just released stars, and made a fun, busy layout with them. The stars are quite cute I think, and they were perfect frames for the small school pics of my girls.

There's a little detail I have to share with you. The 'Our Family' collection includes enamel dots, a big set of them, and in addition to different colors and sizes, there are both matte and shiny versions included too! How cool is that!

This layout is really continuum for the other, as I used my Silhoutte to cut that fun triangle shape. The adges was used in the last layout, and now all these triangles here. Nothing goes waste - or then I really loved that green paper. As I did. Hope you like it too.

Time for another inspiring and colorful Blog Hop with Altenew. I'm always excited to share new things here, but this time the new scrapbook collection 'Our Family' from Altenew makes this so much more special.

I did love the first collection 'Reflection' from Altenew, but I have to admit the designers made huge progress with this second one. I mean, just look at the patterns and colors! And thickers! And and and. Lol, I'm so excited!

As the collection name is 'Our Family', so I simply started this first layout with that specific theme. It was easy, as my family is the most important thing in my whole life. Couldn't live without my gorgeous handsome and thoughtful husband who happens to be my best friend. And my sweet, clever and fun daughters who are growing into smart and beautiful women some day. And of course my puppies, three pretty and very humouristic furry heads who are making laugh each and every day by acting just as they do.

It's a shame we don't have fresh family photos with the doggies, have to take a photoshoot session some day soon.

But now let's stop talking and go into the best part: giveaway. Win $30 gift certificate to spend in Altenew store!

Again this layout features more Pinkfresh Studio products than anything else from the kit, but the 'Escape from Ordinary' collection is so beautiful and all phrases goes so well together with the photos I was scrapping.

Like this one. Maya, my older daughter, is so brave and strong, just as the title says. She climbs on trees, rides without saddle, goes here and there wildly. But fortunately there are moments she wants to cuddle and read a book, be with Mommy too.

I was highly inspired by all the beautiful cards I've seen in Altenew blogs lately, and wanted to bring that same fresh feeling to my page. To do so, I chose this flourish stamp and colored it like others like to color cards.

As I don't own yet any good pens or markers, I borrowed my girls glitter gel pens.

They colored the Top Model notepads, I was coloring this. Almost as epic as the photograph of my parents. Love them so much!

My layout is all about pinks and reds, made with Altenew Reflection Scrapbook collection. When I first thought about the idea of 'crafty friends', I thought about love as friends give and receive so much love from each other, right? And years ago, when I frist found scrapbooking, and all things around it, I soon discovered a whole new group of people supporting each other, helping and loving. Couldn't imagine my life without my Crafty Friends anymore. Thank you all my Friends out there, you are appriciated, cherished, and loved.
